Must also have the ability to defend themselves when a motor cycle gang creep up their van while they parked in some spacious/remote area in Malaysia or somewhere.     Big Grin

A COE can buy 2 simple motorhome in China.
Driving a right-hand drive vehicle into China also needs to employ a guide to sit throughout the trip.
Thus if the Spore/Malaysia driving license is usable in China, I would think it is better to buy one there to travel across China and Central Asia.
Many young PRCs are doing that.
